Ivanovic going nowhere – agent

(12-10-2010) Chelsea are set to offer versatile defender Branislav Ivanovic a new contract, according to his agent. The 26-year-old, who joined the Blues from Lokomotiv Moscow in January 2008, has been linked with a move to Juventus in recent months, where he would play alongside compatriot Milos Krasic. However, Ivanovic's agent Vlado Borozan on Monday vehemently denied this. "There is no truth regarding contact between Ivanovic and Juve," Borozan told Tuttomercatoweb.com. "Those rumours are without foundation. I believe the link may have been made due to the fact that my partner (Dejan) Joksmovic is Krasic's agent and that Ivanovic's contract will expire in June 2011. But the lad is about to sign a contract extension with Chelsea so I really don't think he will be moving away."
